The Literacy Footprints Digital Reader provides elementary grade students and teachers with online access to books and resources from the Literacy Footprints Complete System of Guided Reading. Teachers can create a bookshelf of appropriate books for students to read independently and can create assignments for individuals or groups of students. Additional features include prerecorded lessons and assessments for monitoring progress. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, 1st-grade teachers from the Manatee County School District (MCSD) in Florida had received professional development (PD) training on key components of the Digital Reader and its Literacy Footprints lessons: guided reading, phonics/word study, and guided writing. Teachers learned how to introduce new books to students and prompt for strategic processing as they read. Teachers became familiar with the phonics manipulatives and practiced the phonics/word study procedures associated with the accompanying lessons. In 2020, MCSD shifted to operating in a remote-learning format in response to pandemic concerns. Students were given a Digital Reader for home use and teachers began using it for online instruction. To examine the impact of the Digital Reader on student learning, a quasi-experimental analysis comparing outcomes for students who used the Digital Reader and those who did not across 31 elementary schools was conducted. The analysis found that Digital Reader had a small but positive impact on students' English Language Arts (ELA) achievement.
